Halton, formerly a separate village, is now part of the town of Runcorn, Cheshire, England.

During the medieval period, a deer park measuring 100 acres (40 ha) lay to the south and the west of the village.

Population statistics were recorded separately for the parish of Halton until the village was incorporated into its larger neighbour under the Runcorn New Town (Designation) Order 1964.

The village is now entirely residential, surrounded to the west and north by the estates of Runcorn New Town.

To the south is Halton Lea, a shopping mall, and other retail and entertainment outlets.
